It can sometimes seem daunting, so this is a great question!

We start with a thorough holistic assessment, where we look at how you are moving, your breathing and core strategies, and your overall strength and mobility. We may perform an internal assessment, which will give us more information about your specific pelvic floor muscle function. You can choose not to have an internal exam or treatment as well - there is plenty we can address without that! Follow up sessions focus on meeting your unique needs, from muscle retraining to hands on therapies to strengthening or relaxation exercises. Pelvic floor therapy should take a full body approach in order to not only resolve your symptoms, but to allow you to thrive in any activities you want to do!

We treat a variety of pelvic floor conditions, as well as healthy pregnancy and postpartum stages. Pelvic floor conditions may include: leaking (stress and/or urge incontinence), urinary urgency/frequency, constipation, painful sex, painful periods or pain with inserting a tampon/cup/disc, prolapse/heaviness, diastasis recti (abdominal separation), SI joint pain, back pain, hip pain, sciatica, pubic symphysis and/or round ligament pain, and more. We also provide structured guidance for pregnancy stages, birth prep, and postpartum recovery, with or without the presence of pain or other symptoms.

The short answer is yes. We work with many clients who have tried other pelvic floor therapy before. At Natural Fit Physio, we believe a whole-body, comprehensive approach to treatment is crucial in making lasting change. Each client’s treatment plan is highly individualized in order to meet your unique needs.

If you have not done functional exercises (working in standing, sitting, and other positions), have not had an internal assessment in both lying and standing positions, or have not had other areas (ribcage, hips, feet) looked at previously, then you are definitely in the right place!

Absolutely! We welcome little ones into the space. We understand that you aren’t always able to get to your appointment if you don’t bring your child, and we don’t want that to be a barrier to getting the care you need! We can modify treatments so that we’re on the floor with the little one, and we’re happy to hold baby while mama gets time for a few exercises!

Each visit is one hour, one-on-one in our private office space. We value your time, your goals, and creating a space for healing and calming. No busy gyms or therapists balancing multiple patients!

Physical therapy can help with many injuries and chronic conditions, as well as wellness and prevention. If you are unsure if PT is right for you, fill out the inquiry form or give us a call!

Our office is located at 50 W Edmonston Drive, Suite 508, Rockville, MD. We are right across the street from Wintergreen Plaza.

Virtual lactation support is available throughout the USA.

Absolutely! Although our focus is on women and moms who often don’t get the care they deserve in our healthcare system, we are happy to work with clients of any gender and with a variety of diagnoses. We are able to treat most general orthopedic conditions in addition to or without any pelvic floor concerns.

With a care model tailored to individualized treatment, we do ask for payment upfront. We can take health savings and flex savings and can also give you the appropriate paperwork to seek reimbursement if you are interested. Most clients choose to work with us for the quality of care they receive here. Learn more about our care model.

We’d love to answer any other questions you have and to welcome you in to the Natural Fit family as a new client. Give us a call at (240) 813-0721!

The Thompson Method challenges the forceful techniques that are linked with painful nipple trauma, that are commonly taught in most hospitals.


It’s for ALL women who want to breastfeed but particularly those giving birth in the hospital system because it offers a gentle alternative to help women AVOID the most common and painful breastfeeding complications

But it’s more than just the technique on how to get a good latch. It is that, but it’s also a belief in educating women about how breastmilk is produced, how baby’s oral cavity works to feed, and how each woman and her baby is unique. It’s about knowing your instincts will always be right.

With all the conflicting information women are given about breastfeeding, it can often feel overwhelming. The Thompson Method focuses on empowering mothers to trust their maternal instincts. It is a gentle approach, with no forceful techniques, with a focus on educating mothers so that they can make the best decisions for themselves and their babies.
